On a positive note, some residents of Ottawa have had enough and begun blocking vehicles attempting to join the occupiers. Blockading the blockaders, sweet.

Yeah, those are the ones. Open season on brown people in the streets.

Meanwhile, north of the border: YANKEE GO HOME!

“Something Popped Yesterday”

Quote:
“Ottawans are just fed up. We’re done. I’ll tell you, something popped yesterday,” said Micah Clark, who has lived in Ottawa for 16 years. “We’re just trying to live our lives, and our city’s been turned into a punching bag by a bunch of people who didn’t do real well in civics class.”
Quote:
Sunday’s pushback comes after a large counterprotest gathered Saturday in the Glebe, a neighborhood south of downtown, urging the trucker convoy to leave the city. Residents are expecting more demonstrations in the coming days designed to obstruct movement and make the lives of protesters less comfortable.
I fully expect the instigators to try such "Convoys" in the US. Plenty of Reich-Wing dark money out there to sponsor them. I also expect people who've seen what this noisy minority have done in Canada to take steps to thwart it here. A few of those big dump trucks in key intersections or blocking certain highway off ramps should be able to have the necessary effect. Oh they may get away with it out in West Bumfuck but after what happened Jan 6th, 2021 I don't think the authorities in DC will just roll over like the authorities did in Canada.
